    The part that hasn’t been litigated is unilaterally modifying the agreement and whether you separately own the TV apart from the software covered by the click-wrap contact of adhesion.

    I think a court would decide you have the right to use the TV without the software if you disagree with the terms. Except they currently give you no way to do that.

    Further, it should be illegal to require an update that updates the terms, since the manufacturer effectively can force you to agree to new terms while holding your TV hostage.

    Contract rights have a limit, especially with TOS agreements that are not negotiable.
